How are thing going for everyone game wise?

[FS~Phat]

Guys this argument about dumbing down is getting old and has been explained several times.

The core graphics engine was completely rewritten for the last beta patch which took several months of work.

This necessitated removing some of the add-on effects temporarily until the core was running as fast and smoothly as possible and to allow them to more easily identify core bugs.

The missing effects were never intentionally removed permanently, although as happens with development, some of them may not work to the satisfaction of the devs for quite some time.

So you may not see them all again soon, but rest assured the bulk of them will find their way back into the game when the core graphics engine has been refined. (which is very close)

And in closing.... if you guys cant discuss with some civility, then some of you will be getting infractions and the thread will be locked.

LAST WARNING!
